Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of people who love a true story told well. You'll come away knowing something you didn't.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Well paced for a documentary, at 15 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1961: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

A peculiar in-depth reflection on the concept of homeland reflecting the atmosphere of Basque farmhouses with the participation of emblematic figures in the Basque culture of the period, like the bertsolaris (improvisers of Basque verse) Valentin Enbeita and Jon Lopategi and the Basque dancer Victor Olaeta. To avoid the censorship in place at the time, Elortza entitled the film 'Erria' (Country) rather than 'Aberria' (Homeland).
